On June 24, 2019, Sabre will be releasing Content Services for Lodging, a brand-new set of flexible lodging APIs delivering millions of property options, data normalization, and new search and agency preferencing capabilities.

This industry-changing technology will be a must-have to power your booking tool in 2019.
